On July 20th, during the third peace talks between Kamijin Prefecture and General North of the Republic of Bukin, four evil witch brigades stationed in the eastern part of Rimi Shrine quietly gathered. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The four captains from the wooden battalion did not tell their subordinates the reason for the gathering, they found an open area, and only after making sure that no one was eavesdropping around did one of them ask.

"What do you guys think?"

It was yesterday that the four captains received a message from Kugi Thirty-three. In order to get the message to them as soon as possible, Maier borrowed four cavalry guards from Yishan and asked them to carry Jiumu Thirty-three's men to their destination.

The four brigades were not far from each other, and after receiving the message, the four captains sent their cronies to exchange messages and gathered on a hill on the border between Rimi Shrine and Liangyue City.

The first person to be questioned was codenamed Jiumu Twenty-Five, and he had the best relationship with Jiumu Thirty-three on weekdays. The other three are Jiumu Twenty-Eight, Jiumu Thirty-six and Jiumu Forty-three, when they were active in Shangjin County, the four of them were headed by Jiumu Thirty-three, but Jiumu Thirty-three didn't have this consciousness at all, and always spoke to the four people in a consultative tone.

After Jiumu Thirty-three was assigned to the territory of Liangyue City, Jiumu Twenty-five became the backbone of the other three. Kuki Twenty-Five knows that he doesn't have this talent, so he often sends people to his friends for help.

After the 33rd Brigade of Jiumu was captured by Maier and his party, the other four "Jiumu Brigade" panicked. If they hadn't been contacted on the 19th, most of them would have left their posts without permission and went to Liangyue City to find someone.

"I didn't expect Thirty-three and her people to be arrested." Jiumu Thirty-six said with a complicated face, "And they were also taken in by the people who captured them, how can this be good." ”

"What should we do if this matter is found out to the shrine?"

Kugi Twenty-Eight looked very nervous, and beads of sweat kept dripping down his forehead.

"If it is known by the shrine...... Thirty-three is our sister! It's a big deal to fight with the Great Witch! ”

Kugi's voice trembled, but his tone was resolute.

"It shouldn't be that bad."

After the three sisters had spoken, Kuki Twenty-five said with a frown.

"I believe that in Thirty-Three's eyes, since she dares to betray the shrine, then the person she has taken refuge in will definitely be able to protect everyone - the most powerful evidence is that he wants to uproot the shrine, and ordinary people do not have the courage to say such things."

In fact, there are not a few people who want to uproot the Black Shrine, at least every bounty hunter wants to make this fortune. It's just that the Great Witch in the eyes of the Evil Witch is really terrible, in their opinion, the person who dares to argue with the Great Witch must at least be a prince, and the warriors under his command must have 10,000 people, otherwise they will not be able to defeat the Great Witch at all.

In fact, as long as you reach the level of a large bandit group or a large mercenary group, it is not difficult to destroy the Black Shrine. The reason why the Great Shrine Maiden of the Black Shrine is still at large is not because she is strong, but because everyone can't find the location of the Black Shrine.

"You mean to say that everyone goes to that guy together?"

Jiumu Forty-three's words made the other three gasp, and they only dared to think about betraying the Great Witch. Even if you want to, you have to hide it tightly in your heart and never let it get on your tongue and lips.

"You can't talk nonsense, you can't talk nonsense......"

Jiumu Twenty-eight, who was the first to react, shook his head again and again, and vigilantly checked the situation around him.

"Twenty-five doesn't mean that...... Twenty-five means to say...... Let's not worry about thirty-three, right, twenty-five? ”

Kugi Thirty-Six gave Kugi Twenty-Five a look, hoping that she would follow her words. But he didn't want to Jiumu Twenty-five After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth sharply, clenched his fists and said.

"Let's go to Thirty-Three together!"

When Jiumu Forty-three heard this, he was shocked. She just said it casually, and she regretted it as soon as she said it. Now that Jiumu Twenty-five has made his words clear, the other three have no way to avoid it, so they can only face it head-on.

In fact, Kugi Thirty-three's message to the four people has been very clear, she hopes that the four of them will abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and gather at her brigade base before the 21st to deal with the Black Shrine together. But none of the four had the guts, so they gathered near the border to deliberate and wait for the opinions of the others to make a decision.

"Twenty-five, it's not a matter of the four of us, and the lives of hundreds of our subordinates are at stake...... "Kugi Thirty-six said in embarrassment, "In case a big witch-"

Without waiting for Jiumu Thirty-six to finish speaking, Jiumu Twenty-Eight grabbed the white road.

"What if a great witch chases us and the lord abandons us?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the air was dominated by silence, and all four of them saw worry on the faces of the other three.

I don't know how long later, Jiumu Twenty-five suddenly took off his mask, threw it on the ground and smashed it into pieces. After doing this, she was sweating profusely and her face was pale.

"There's no way back."

The other three were stunned for a moment, and Jiumu Forty-Three immediately took off his mask and threw it on the ground, learning from Jiumu Twenty-five to smash it with a knife. Seeing that their companions had made a choice, the other two had no choice but to take off their masks and throw them on the ground, smashing them to pieces.

The support of her companions touched Kugi Twenty-five very much, and her face regained some blood, and she said in a choked voice.

"Now we have no way back."

From the place where the four of them gathered to the stronghold of the 33rd Brigade of Jiumu, hundreds of people had to walk for more than ten hours. The four of them took a lot of time to appease their subordinates, and it was already past noon when they set off. On the way, some timid witches tried to quit, but the four of them tried to persuade them many times but they could not change their minds.

In order to prevent more people from quitting, or someone sneaking back to inform, the four of them had to be ruthless, ordered their cronies to kill these people, and strengthened the monitoring of their subordinates, so that they could move more slowly. When they arrived at the stronghold of the 33rd Brigade of Jiumu, it was already noon on the 22nd, and Maier and his party were already waiting for them there.

In fact, they arrived on the morning of the 22nd, and they were a day late.

Things have to start from the day He Yan Xinye wanted to participate in the operation.

"Your Excellency the City Lord, Your Royal Highness the Princess, the little girl has a reluctant request - to investigate the location of the Black Shrine, can you let the little girl and the foolish brother participate?"

The two who played chess did not shy away from Yan Xinye when they talked, Yishan felt that there was nothing to avoid, and Uris had already given Yan Xinye a mouth, Yishan provoked the conversation, and she went on naturally. Although Yanxin's stay at night is short, she has long been regarded as an ally by Euris, and Euris also plans to include her in her plans to fulfill her wishes.

For Yan Xinye's request, Euris naturally agreed to 10,000. But now it's no longer up to her to decide this plan, so she can only ask Yishan's opinion.

"Are you saying that the Heyan family wants to participate in this operation?" Yishan asked.

If the little girl speaks, her father will not refuse. This action is to protect the territory and the people, and the Yan family is willing to bear all the grain and grass, and contribute to Liang Yuecheng and Xiaohu's family. ”

"Does Mr. Ruizhi know about this?"

In this matter, the little girl can make decisions on behalf of her father. As long as His Excellency the city lord is willing to let the little girl and the foolish brother accompany him, and the Heyan family is willing to send an additional 100 guards and handymen, the food and salary will be borne by the Heyan family. ”

Heyanjia is a business, and businesses are all profit-oriented. Yishan didn't think that the Heyan family would help her in vain, so she asked openly.

"What does the Heyan family want?"

"Your Excellency the city lord is serious, contributing to the people is the desire of the Heyan family, and I don't dare to ask for returns."

Yishan bit her lip and thought for a while, the reputation of the Heyan family in Liangyue City was already very high, and there was no need to improve it further. What the Heyan family is doing now is not to send charcoal in the snow, but to add icing on the cake, which is not a favor. In this way, the efforts of the Heyan family are really not rewarded.

Seeing that Yishan doubted her motives, He Yanxin explained with a smile.

As the saying goes, the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, Brother Maier saved the life of the foolish brother, and the Yan family has always wanted to repay the kindness of Brother Meier, but he has never found a suitable opportunity. The little girl knows that the Heyan family is still just icing on the cake this time, but even so, the Heyan family is willing to contribute to Brother Maier. ”

Yishan knew that Maier had saved He Yan Zhiheng's life, so Yan Xinye's words dispelled her doubts.

"Okay, this operation is counted as a share of the Heyan family, and you and Heyan Zhiheng can participate."

After Yishan nodded in agreement, a fine light flashed in Yan Xinye's eyes, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a smile like a conspiracy succeeding. This expression only lasted for a moment, but it happened to be seen by Lan Ning, who was sitting opposite. She couldn't help but think back to Euris's terrifying face-changing technique, and shivered.

What she said to Yan Xinye was all a pretext, and her real purpose was to join the new plan and fulfill her wishes, which Uris knew very well. She turned her face and smiled tacitly with Yan Xinye.

At noon that day, He Yanxin returned to his house at night and told his father about the matter. He Yan Ruizhi has no opinion on subsidizing grain and grass and sending guard handymen. When he learned that his second son and daughter were also going to accompany him, He Yan Ruizhi hesitated.

He Yan Ruizhi knew that although He Yan Zhiheng went out of the door twice, he was just a businessman, and there was Maier protection by his side, and his safety was guaranteed. But this time, Maier and they went to suppress the bandits, and they were still suppressing the large-scale lawless forces whose activities spanned the three regions of Rimi Shrine, Kamijin County, and the eastern part of Liangyue City.

As long as it is a bandit, there is nothing that is not dangerous. The outlaws are fighting on the home field, and even if the officers and troops have the advantage of troops, they may not be able to successfully exterminate the lawless forces, and they may also lose their troops because of the light enemy or the rash advance. Some outlaws would even raid the camp of the official army at night.

He Yan Rui knew that he didn't want his second son and daughter to have a mistake, so he would rather send twice as many guards and miscellaneous servants to bear the salary of the whole army, rather than let the two go out with the army.

He Yan Xinye had been prepared for this. She pulled out a dagger from her arms, put the tip of the knife against her neck, and said to He Yan Ruizhi with a smile.

"Father, life and death have their own destiny. If you insist on stopping your daughter from accompanying her, she only needs to test her destiny and see if she is blessed to live to the age of fifteen. ”

He Yan Ruizhi didn't expect his daughter to suddenly die and could only nod and agree.

Although He Yan Xinye repeatedly promised that she would stay in the rear honestly with her brother, He Yan Ruizhi was still not at ease. He sent a hundred additional guards to protect them, not because he couldn't trust Maier and Yishan, but because his father was worried about his children.

At the same time, he did not forget to find a way to make his son and daughter retreat. Before leaving, he had the axles of the grain truck sawed out of the gap, and the car was lying on its stomach halfway through. When repairing the car, someone found that the broken axle had been sawn, and after these people reported the matter, everyone thought that the news of the army's departure had leaked, and discussed it for a long time before deciding to move on.

In addition to Yishan's escort cavalry, Ulris's personal guard maid, Maier's new subordinates, Lanning's subordinates, and the guards and miscellaneous servants sent by the Yan family, there were also 500 city guards and 500 militiamen, with a total strength of more than 2,000 people. The evil witches' faces turned green with fright when they saw the dense marching tents in the stronghold of the 33rd Brigade of Jiuki.

Fortunately, they quickly realized that they were here to surrender to Cheng, not to deal with the officials and soldiers, and immediately turned their worries into joy. The witch maiden, who had not yet made up her mind, quickly took off her mask and threw it on the ground, following her companions who had already lost their masks and walked quickly in the direction of the stronghold.
